New Variety in Fitness This Week!

Good morning everyone! Somehow we're getting cool rainy weather in the middle of June, so it's a great time to stay indoors and work out! After three months of online workouts we have pushed bodyweight workouts as far as we can, and to add some variety we are introducing light weights and medium weights to some of the fitness classes. Light weights are 1-3 pounds, so you can use cans of soup, water bottles, or light dumbbells. These are weights you would use for high-rep shoulder exercises, or to add resistance to core work. Medium weights would be 10-20 lbs, so a jug of water, backpack with some stuff in it, and naturally actual dumbbells would be fine as well. Think weights you would use for curls and shoulder presses. For both light weights and medium weights, you will want a pair.

You can put this stuff together easily at home, and of course you can borrow equipment from the studio! Check the schedule below to see which classes use which equipment. For this week especially don't stress if you don't have the right equipment, or aren't sure the best thing to use. Take the classes that fit your schedule the best, and if you don't have two jugs of water we'll make the class work for you anyway!

There is also one change to the Krav Maga schedule: Because we have had some brand new people joining us lately, Tuesday 5:30pm Krav Maga is now Krav Maga Fundamentals. This class will assume no prior knowledge at all of Krav Maga, and will be an excellent 

The status of reopening is still unclear. I believe there is a bill on the governor's desk calling to reopen gyms, waiting for him to make a decision. Cases are still increasing at an accelerating rate in North Carolina, so there's no guarantee he will sign it. I am hopeful he does, for better or worse, because I do miss having people in the studio. Outdoor classes are still a good option, but the weather has to cooperate. For this week we will stay the course, throw some new weights into our workouts, and keep training and moving forwards no matter what! The schedule is below, please check it carefully for the small updates, and we will see you in class!
